Popping Boba and Bubble Tea

What is popping boba?

Popping boba are small, juice-filled pearls with a thin, jelly-like skin that bursts in your mouth. Unlike tapioca pearls, they need no cooking: just spoon them into your drink or dessert.

How to use popping boba

Add 2–3 tablespoons to iced tea, lemonade, milkshakes, smoothies or mocktails, or top ice cream, frozen yoghurt and pancakes. For a quick bubble tea at home, pair them with one of our iced tea premixes. Serve with a wide straw so the pearls come through.

Storage and delivery

Orders above ₹1,499 ship free anywhere in India; below that, delivery is a flat ₹70. We dispatch within 24 hours, and delivery usually takes 3–5 days to metros and 5–8 days elsewhere.

Are popping boba suitable for kids' parties?

They are a fun party favourite. As with any small round food, supervise young children while they eat them.

At about 2–3 tablespoons per drink, a tub makes many servings. Check each product page for the net weight.
